whoa woe

this gorgeous gifted silk knit.i thought i had enough for my shroud, but was proven wrong.

being extra careful as knits require i traced the top pattern in whole so that it could be cut in one piece. i thought that would also be a fabric saver, but alas no.






















the skirt pieces;  2 pairs for the top part and two pairs for the bottom of the skirt. not enough for the 4 bottom pieces   (╯︵╰,)
have thought of two solutions

• either knit a black piece myself and do a one to one on both the front and back or do the whole top or bottom with the knit. 
• or hunt for a plain black knit fabric.

still have to decide. meanwhile the weaving proceeds.

inspiration is hard work

the more one works, the more inspired one gets. this is nº 5 already finished. it has given me some thoughts about the series; i can see the whole of it now not just the individual pieces.

next one already on its way. i just hope to get 10 pieces of work from this warp; the mess behind the heddles is mind blowing. hemp is beautiful, but weaves with pain.
